The sum must be irrational in contradiction to it being rational
Answer:
156.25 grams
Step-by-step explanation:
Well, for starters we know that the substance decays by 2% each day and its been decaying for 34 days. Therefore, the substance has decayed by 68%
34 x 2 = 68
Hence, 50 grams is 32% because the substance has already decayed by 68%
100 - 68 = 32
So now we know 50 grams is 32%. Now we need to find how much 100% is.
50 - 32%
X - 100%
We cross multiply.
50 x 100 = 5000
And divide.
5000 / 32 = 156.25
Thus, in the beginning, there were 156.25 grams in the substance.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
A = 120, P = 55
Step-by-step explanation:
Triangle
Area = (bh)/2
A = (20x12)/2
A =240/2
A = 120
Perimeter = a + b + c
to find c, use a^2 +b^2 = c^2
20^2 + 12^2 = c^2
400 + 144 = c^2
544 = c^2
c = about 23
20 + 12 + 23 = 55
The distributive property of 75/3 may look like:
75/3 = 30/3 + 30/3 + 15/3
It's easier to count 30/3 than 75/3, so I did it twice and then I had 15 left, because 75 - (30 + 30) = 15.
That's basicly how you do it - just try to find the easiest number to divide (smaller then the given dividend).
